With the upcoming Snyder cut of the 2017 movie Justice League, speculations are running wild. The new version of the story could fix many mistakes the film had, from limited space given to some of the characters to illogical plot points and bad CGI.
Wonder Woman hasn't gotten such bad treatment as some of her fellow superheroes in this film but there are still some things the Snyder cut could change about her to make her appearance in Justice League even more significant. After all, Wonder Woman is one of the three main members of the League, and as such, she deserves the film to reflect her importance.
Should Change: Diana Should Join The Race
In the film's post-credits scene, Superman and the Flash race to find out who's faster - but the film never gives the audience the answer to that question. It could not only fix that in the Snyder Cut but also do one better - and throw Diana into the mix!
Not every fan might know that Diana can run very fast too, and she looks like the type of person who would enjoy a little friendly race with her superhero friends.
Should Stay The Same: Wonder Woman Takes On Superman
Some questionable motivations and CGI effects aside, the fight between Wonder Woman and Superman was epic, even though a bit short. Wonder Woman and Superman fought in the comics before so it was a nice nod to the source material (whether the film meant it that way, that's another question).
It also solved the question of who was stronger of the two (although Diana has defeated Superman several times but that's for another story.) Still, she did better than the rest of the Justice League who tried to take on Superman as well.
Should Change: Diana Should Change Her Lasso More
Wonder Woman's Lasso of Truth is one of her iconic weapons/tools. Yet, with the exception of one scene, it's difficult to recall Diana using it in Justice League. At least not in an impressive or memorable fashion.
Diana can do a lot of good with the Lasso in a fight but the film hasn't given her the chance. Instead, she used it to learn that Aquaman admired her.
Should Stay The Same: Diana Helps To Bring The Team Together
Of all the Justice League members, it's Diana - despite being a recluse - who has the best people skills. She's kind to the Flash even though he's nervous and rather new at the whole superhero business. She helps keep Batman in line. She's the only one who impresses Aquaman enough to make him believe they might have a shot at winning the battle after all.
And she's supportive toward Cyborg who doesn't want to join the team at first but changes his mind after speaking with Diana. Wonder Woman is simply the glue that holds the team together.
Should Change: Wonder Woman And Superman Should Spend More Time Together
Unlike Bruce Wayne, with whom Diana spent quite a lot of time, Wonder Woman and Superman - or Diana Prince and Clark Kent - barely had any scenes together or spoke in Justice League. It's a shame considering how close the two superheroes are in the comics.
They're good friends and even dated in the comics for a while. Plus, Henry Cavill and Gal Gadot are both amazing actors, and bringing them in for some shared scene would be fascinating to watch.
Should Stay The Same: Bruce And Diana Are Friends
Batman and Wonder Woman - or, really, Bruce Wayne and Diana Prince - had amazing chemistry since the first moment they appeared together in Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016). The two spent quite a lot of time together in Justice League which fits the comics well.
They're friends in the Justice League comics and often work side by side. Batman even kissed Wonder Woman at one point and she acknowledged her attraction to him as well.
Should Change: Wonder Woman Should Use Her New Powers (Or Toys)
In Wonder Woman 1984, Diana showed some new effective powers, such as making things invisible or flying. She also used the amazing Golden Eagle armor that previously belonged to Asteria, who now lives hidden among people.
Even though it might be far-fetched for the armor to appear in the Snyder cut, it would be more reasonable for Diana to use every power she has in the battle against Steppenwolf and his army.
Should Stay The Same: Diana References Her Past
In her talks with Bruce Wayne in the film, Diana has referenced her past and talked about herself and her attitude to the world briefly. Considering how hard Diana tried to stay away from people and not mention what happened to her or Steve, it was nice to see she opened up to someone, albeit a little. The Snyder Cut could give her even more material to work with but the previous version of the story did fine with what it had.
Should Change: Themyscira Should Appear
Wonder Woman no longer has access to her home Themyscira but that doesn't mean Themyscira isn't aware of what's happening in the outside world.
Amazons have already briefly appeared in the previous version of the Justice League (2017) but the Snyder cut could easily show how they have protected the Mother Box in the past... and perhaps young Diana could make a cameo in such a scene as well.
Should Stay The Same: Wonder Woman Keeps A Low Profile
Diana's been careful to keep a low profile over the years she lived in the men's world. She has it harder in the 21st century, what with cameras and smartphones everywhere, yet she somehow manages to pull it off.
Even Bruce Wayne had no idea who she was until she entered his life. Diana has already tried to keep a low profile in Wonder Woman 1984 so it was good to see she continued with the same trend even three decades later.
